Morency Paint Shop and Apartment Building

The Morency Paint Shop and Apartment Building, located at 77-79 Portland Street in St. Johnsbury, Vermont, is a historic mixed-use structure built in 1890. Originally serving as a carriage painter's shop with residential units above, it exemplifies Victorian vernacular architecture. The building features a distinctive L-shaped design with a cross-gable roof, wooden clapboard exterior, and a charming two-story porch adorned with Victorian details. Now fully residential, it retains much of its original woodwork and was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1994, making it a noteworthy site for tourists and researchers interested in local history and architecture.
